This quest begins with Captain Bvellos in Kael Drakkel (roams from the arena to the bank to the palace area).

You say, 'Hail, Captain Bvellos'

Captain Bvellos says 'Greetings, _____. I am the captain of the Kael militia. I will be watching those of your kind who have come to Kael Drakkel as mercenaries and bounty hunters. You may have come here to serve king Tormax but Kael is my home and I intend to keep it a safe place for the Kromzek. Keep yourself out of trouble or you will end up in a world of pain.'

You say, 'I will keep Kael safe.'

Captain Bvellos says 'With the influx of [mercenaries] into Kael Drakkel, I have seen minor crimes increase. I have had to increase my militia patrols. A majority of my militia work longer hours than they did before. There was a time when we only had to watch for the dragons from the sky and the Coldain from the outside. Now we must watch within.'

You say, 'What about mercenaries?'

Captain Bvellos says 'I have several bounties open if you are interested. Bring me the head of a Coldain and I will reward you with a small sum of money and spread the word of your good work. There is also a bounty upon the nefarious Icepaw kobolds who serve the outcast Velketor. I require four of the paws of those little beasts.'



In exchange for a Coldain Head, you receive a few platinum pieces and a substantial faction increase with King Tormax. (Note: An easy way to test your faction standing with King Tormax is to exit the bank and turn hard left. Before you get to the Icy Bridge, stop and con Dlammaz Stormslayer who is across the bridge and to the left.)

Captain Bvellos says, 'Excellent, ______. Here is the bounty as promised.'
Your faction standing with Kromzek has been adjusted by 40
Your faction standing with Kromrif has been adjusted by 10
Your faction standing with King Tormax has been adjusted by 10
Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan has been adjusted by -20
You gain experience!!

In exchange for 4x Kobold Paw, you get a Silvery Mask, an Antlered Mask, or a Giant Scalemail Tunic:

Captain Bvellos says 'You have done well to hunt down these foul dogs.'
Captain Bvellos reaches into a large bag and pulls something shiny from within its depths 'Take this as a reward.'
Your faction standing with Kromzek has been adjusted by 40
Your faction standing with Kromrif has been adjusted by 10
Your faction standing with King Tormax has been adjusted by 10
Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan has been adjusted by -20
You gain experience!!

Raising faction..
# Feb 11 2001 at 2:09 PM Rating: Decent
This is probably the best way to raise faction with Tormax.
Kill in Skyshrine a ton. You should want items in there no matter what class you are.
After you get the item, check back with Kael...and con this guy again.
He conned warmly to me.
Now, I am paying 5pp for each Coldain Head!
Note: If this quest only lowers your CoV faction, you can raise all factions in Kael without killing a dorf if you buy the heads instead.
The heads also drop off mobs in the mines in Thurgadin, so you could also get them that way and raise both dwarf and giant factions.

Tomax does not have much concern for his subjects, so his faction is not hurt even though I killed hundreds of giants in GD and quite a few in Kael.

Coldain dont care about dwarf heads which can be obtained without killing dwarves.

Recruiter is not agro if he is green so even though he realy hates me I can still quest.

Anyone know how much faction hit for CoV - I'm guessing not much?

The Kromriff Recruiter (level 1! even con to my Rallos Zek worshipping test Halfling Warrior) will NOT give you any faction for the heads if he's actually threatening or scowling, even if he won't attack.
RE: Raising faction..
# Mar 04 2001 at 6:54 PM Rating: Decent
You lose coldain faction when you turn in the heads. Therefore you are going to have to choose whom you want you ally yourself with.

hehe, i "can't possibly lower faction further" with the wee ones anymore so this won't be a prob lmao

you're thinking of the quest given by the recruiter. this is different.
A little more info

I spent almost a full day killing dwarves and wolves in the Great Dividie to get from "scowls" to "dubious". During that time I got 8 Coldain heads, which I saved. When hailed, Captain Bvellos still wouldn't give me this quest, but I turned in a head anyway, and got the faction and exp mentioned above. Turning in the 8 heads got me from dubious to indifferent with the storm giants, while the ice giants stayed dubious (this may be because I killed 5 to 10 before I decided to boost giant faction). Reward was between 2 pp and 9 pp for each head.

Well, after days and days of killing coldain and turning in heads to the kromrif recruiter and Slaggak the trainer, i've managed to get to kindly with the frost giants but am still dubious to the storm giants. Did i read your post correctly when you said your faction with storm increased better than the faction with frost? If so, i may have just found out why my storm isn't moving very quickly (i have not killed any giants whatsoever).

Storm Giant faction is linked to dragon(kind) and their allies, kill in Skyshrine increases Storm Giant faction dramatically..my Troll Warrior lives in Kael now :)
RE: A "little" more info
# Feb 21 2001 at 5:34 AM Rating: Decent
There are actually 4 different faction in Kael. Kromrif, Kromzek, King Thormax and the temple of Zek faction that is Diety based.

To gain frost giant and storm giant faction (Kromzek-Kromrif) You kill coldain dorfs and skyshrine habitants. at that time when You still cant deliver the heads to Captain Bvellos, You deliver then to the recruiter by the EW zone in Kael. When You are able to deliver to captain, do so. It will raise every faction raisable at Kael.

When the King talks back to You Youre done.

Long Live King Tormax!

I have yet to see a quest that raises faction specifically with the Temple of Zek. I am currently apprehensive to the King but am still scowled at by the people back in the temple. I have tried to get the books of tactics but so far absolutely none have dropped for me. Does that quest raise temple faction? If so I am going to concentrate my efforts on attaining the books.

I've Killed just about every kind of Giant myself with my main character (who will kill just about anything, being a mercenary) aside from, the King and Vindicator, we've even pulled those nearest those two behemoths. In all that time I've never seen a faction hit against Temple of Zek, even after killing Priests of Zek, and many of the other complete heal casting giants that linger around the arena area. If it a real 'faction' perhaps it can only go up (like beta neutral), or maybe it isnt a true faction at all, and the NPC's just check your diety. It'd be interesting to see if they disliked agnostics also. Makes sense if they dislike Rodcet Nife or any of the nature gods (well, as much sense as any ability to read your beliefs through your armor or robes).
